Plus a little..

This build started with a frame I fell in love with (loving plus quads). It was meant for a baby hawk transplant, so I had to drill out there motor mount holes a little to fit standard 1104s. She's a rocket on 3s, and still a blast on 2s. The prop guards didn't last, but had to have the pads they're on so the motor screws weren't too long. First flight out gave me brown outs, so I mounted the AIO cam to a separate 5v regulator. Not a lot of room for it, but it squeezes in there. Note also there's some bug in the #4 motor signal pad with dshot - if you want to use dshot on the femto f3, you have to move signal pad to led or tx pad for motor 4.

The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
